A book of poems by Yulia Fridman.
“… a thick layer of ontologies unfolds and hundreds of lost voices are heard. I am entering the age-old sleep, into loneliness, into love. I go into the world, where there are goblins, children and old people, where is enchanted grass. And, reading poem after poem, I suddenly understand that there are no hopeless situations. In any case, we always have the opportunity to turn into a cuckoo and fly away.”
